Leaving the Yang family, Li Chen sent the hospitality ticket to the Su family. Suleiman was fine now, and after leaving the ship from port, he was fine. Nervous? No matter how tense it is, it is useless, maritime trade is like this, it is very profitable at the same time, but it also bears a lot of risks. Does nervousness reduce risk?

In this day and age, probably no one can figure out whether the risk they take is equal to the profit they receive. What is risk-free? You have to worry about the weather when you farm, and you have to worry about your employer not paying you when you help others work.

So as long as the profits continue to be lucrative, if you don't do it, there will still be people who will continue to do it. Nervousness is an unnecessary emotion that does not mitigate the risks taken. As for what to prepare in advance, what can you do? In the event of a storm, a daz, nothing is useless. There were no weather satellites in those days, so the only thing I could do was pray.

Pray, plus have fun, there is wine today and drunk today, and tomorrow sorrow will come tomorrow. No one knows if they can come back safely when they have to go to sea this time, and they will be happy tonight, and don't let the gold bottle be empty to the moon. So, Suleiman is looking forward to the excitement. promised to find someone to cheer for it.

This method is good for the skin and can have a beauty effect. It's useless to bring Su Laiman in the light, and the important thing is Su Xiaoxiao, so Li Chen said this.

This sentence is really lethal, even if Su Leiman does not agree, Su Xiaoxiao will go. Women have the best money to earn, and the best money is makeup and skin care products, don't you see all department stores, and the first floor is a cosmetics counter?

When the Su family arrived, Li Chen was ready to go back. At the moment, he doesn't have any connections, so that's all he has to offer. However, he still has to go somewhere.

Li Chen took a group of guards back to where he lived, nearby..., and walked into a big mansion. This mansion is lively, and the warblers and swallows in it are so lively. Yee Hong-in? Of course not, Yingying Yanyan is a group of aunts, and there are also little ladies, as many as aunts, and there are many little farts running around.

In addition to the loud crowds in the big house, the door is also very lively, when Li Chen first came, he exceeded a slow ox cart, and when he entered the door, another ox cart pulled things out.

It's good, it's lively, it's good. Li Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then found an aunt. She is the lady who has to be in charge here.

'How's business yesterday?' Li Chen got off the horse and asked, "Boss, this is the account book." Aunt Sun presented an account book, and Li Chen crossed the vestibule and walked into the main hall while passing the account book. After entering the main hall, I sat down and began to flip through the pages.

After casually flipping through it, Li Chen began to inspect. This is the workshop area, close to Li Chen's rented house. Li Chen rented it only a month ago.

The workshop was in full swing and was divided into countless groups, some with more people and some with fewer people. The leader of the group was a woman. I saw that she kept her hands and put the whole piece of coal into the mold, and pressed it into shape at once. Then she swept away the remaining cinders and went on to get busy.

Cinders are swept away, but they are not discarded like this. I saw a few children busy mixing crushed cinders and loess in a certain proportion and putting them on a plate. Then an older child brought the plate to the woman who had just been busy.

The busy woman repeated what she had just done, put the mixed things into an iron mold, pressed down the square iron plate, and then took the formed coal to another wooden plate, and a child struggled to pick up the plate, and put it in a certain area, together with the finished product.

There were already many lumps of coal that had been pressed into shape. After a while, someone came to carry the coal, and a child took a pen and paper and recorded how much coal was removed. This is a workshop for the production of coal blocks.

After unremitting advertising, the majority of Yangzhou citizens finally know that they do not have to suffer from the cold this winter. The new coal stove can make them comfortable for a good winter. Although the coal stove is expensive, the coal is very cheap. At first, it was just a few people who tried to buy it back, but later found that it was really easy to use, boiling hot water in winter, or cooking food, it was very useful. You can also make a fire to keep warm on a cold day.

Therefore, even if a large number of blacksmiths have begun to join the ranks of building coal stoves, coal stoves are in short supply.

Coal stoves sell well, and coal lumps are naturally better as fuel. So the whole workshop is in full swing. Li Chen originally hired the group of old soldiers under him to get family members and relatives. Later, the business was getting better and better, and after Wang Tian asked for instructions, he introduced many people to come in.

Those children, not those adopted by Li Chen, are all old soldiers. In this era, who cares if you use child labor or not, there is money to work here, and Li Chen is very generous to take care of two meals in the morning and afternoon.

The coal block workshop is carried out in groups, Li Chen doesn't care how many people you have in a group, anyway, my coal block is measured and paid according to the login group, and I make more money. Those registered children are the real ones that Li Chen adopted. Again, the amount of food per day for each group is also allocated according to your efficiency yesterday.

Li Chen turned around, rubbed his hands with a smile and looked at the working atmosphere of the workshop, and was very satisfied. He considered whether to expand the workshop. Because it's now winter, the fuel sells well. Coal is not only used for coal stoves, but also for general stoves, not to mention anything else, just that Li Chen's sauna is about to open, and half of the current amount has been transported to the sauna hall.

The sauna that opened soon needed fuel, and because of the cheap price, some restaurants and other places that needed to light fires were vigorously promoted by Li Chen, and some operators also began to consider using coal.

In Datang, firewood is used the most. Many mountains have been cut down. Coal is rarely used, and most of the coal is used as fuel for blast furnaces. In China, the large-scale use of coal will have to wait until the Northern Song Dynasty.

Li Chen feels that he has contributed a lot to the environmental protection of ancient China. Firewood has to be felled, which is too unenvironmentally friendly, and many mountains and forests have been cut down bare because they have to cut down wood to get firewood. This is not the movie or TV where the firewood inspectors just pick up some dead branches. When it comes to getting firewood, many of them are cut down by the whole tree, waiting for the dead branches? Definitely wait until you cry.

It's just that they just cut down the trees desperately, but they don't know how to replant them, and in the end, the bad results are all tasted by themselves. A bare mountain will cause harm, modern people probably know. But the Tang people have not yet achieved such awareness.

Li Chen feels that he is very great, and if China can enter the era of using coal as a fuel as soon as possible, can it reduce some of the damage to the future? (To be continued.) )
